The Role

Were hiring an AI-native Junior Software Engineer to build software with AI across two fronts: internal tools that make our team faster and customer-facing product. This is not a pure internal-automation role. Youll automate the messy work that slows engineering and the business down and youll also ship product features and agents that customers use. We want the balance of both.

You already build with AI. You reach for coding agents and LLMs the way other engineers reach for a framework and you have a track record of shipping real things with them not just experimenting. AI does the heavy lifting on the platform layer; your job is to point it at the right problems and ship.

Interview note: part of the process is a live working session. Youll screen share and build with the AI tool of your choice then well program together. We can provide an Anthropic API key for the interview (Claude Code Cursor or others) if youd rather not use your own.

What Were Looking For
